About Us

Our Foundation

The Maritime Pastoral Training Foundation, Ltd. was founded as a non-profit charitable organization in February 2018, and the Internal Revenue Service verified MPTF's status as a 501 (c) (3) tax-exempt charity on March 18, 2018.  In March 2020, MPTF purchased Sacramento's historic Vietnam War gunboat, PTF-26, seeking to build on its impressive 20 year record as operational museum ship and Sea Scout training vessel with an award-winning all-female crew.  PTF-26 is relocating from Morro Bay, CA to Paducah, KY to provide shipboard experiences for young people on the Inland Waterways. Renamed T/S JESSE L. BROWN, PTF-26 will serve as a floating classroom/laboratory for marine technology students at Paducah's Innovation Hub.  PTF-26 will also be Kentucky's 1st historic naval ship museum,  crewed and maintained by area maritime-oriented youth programs (Sea Scouts, NJROTC, Sea Cadets).  PTF-26 will also become home to the maritime chaplains school.
